Dave Holmes, from the Foundation Center Midwest, will help participants understand the business aspects of a nonprofit, the vital role of nonprofits in our community, advantages and disadvantages of forming a nonprofit, how to get started and common misconceptions, and alternatives to starting a nonprofit.
Local foundations and agencies will be in attendance to answer questions about how they engage with nonprofit organizations and what funders typically look for in grant proposals.
